Part16

Xia Zhiyao suddenly smiled, beautiful and incomprehensible. "I'm more miserable than you imagined, how is it, don't you feel particularly happy?"

The light was projected on her smiling cheeks, and the bitterness hidden behind that smile made Gu Mingcheng feel a stab in his heart.

In his moment of silence, Xia Zhiyao walked around his side towards the outside of the art gallery, and walked out of the door, walking less than ten meters away, his arm was dragged by a powerful force. Xia Zhiyao was forced to turn around, Gu Mingcheng pulled her right wrist, and an undetectable flame gradually appeared in her pupils. "What's the matter with your right hand?"

Xia Zhiyao wanted to withdraw his arm, but she couldn't use the strength, and he held it hard enough. Is it a tie? Who are you mine? Gu Mingcheng, what qualifications do you have, what position do you have-come to question me? ”

Gu Mingcheng was so angry by her stubborn tone that he rose in anger. "Don't you love to draw the most? Didn't you dream of becoming a painter? Xia Zhiyao, you can't even protect your own hand holding a paintbrush, what qualifications do you have to talk about dreams? ”

As if a basin of cold water was pouring down from her head, Xia Zhiyao suddenly lost her voice, and after a long time, she seemed to jump out of the chaotic memories, pulling her lips and laughing self-deprecatingly. "That's right, I did it myself." No one else is to blame, only herself. "So, Mr. Gu, please put away this ridiculous, self-righteous savior. I...... There is no blessing. ”

Gu Mingcheng has always had a feeling during these days, he feels that Xia Zhiyao is too depressed, and the whole person seems to be shrouded in a dark cloud, and he can't see the light. In the past, he couldn't get used to her pretending to be pitiful, but Ye Nian's generosity and decency made him feel more comfortable. But now, when he watched her up close and paid attention to her, he was shocked to realize that the sadness she had unintentionally revealed seemed to have penetrated deep into the bone marrow. And he realized that he could ...... Feel distressed......

The next day, Xia Zhiyao called in sick. It's not fake, it's really sick. Her body and bones were already weak, and the weather gradually became colder, and she caught a cold when she slept and kicked the quilt at night, but fortunately she didn't have a high fever, but the lack of breath was enough for her to be uncomfortable.

Xiao Jiu was busy cooking ginger soup and rice porridge for her, but his clumsy porridge was not done and made a mess in the kitchen, so angry that Bei Bei jumped to his feet. "Please, I'll call you uncle, don't mess with me! How easy is it for me to clean up the kitchen! ”

Xiao Jiu was embarrassed, sticking to the corner of the wall and scratching his head to see Bei Bei Zhangluo. "Didn't I want to help......

"Don't do me any favors, I'll be thankful!" Bei Bei patted her chest and breathed smoothly.

When Lu Nanteng came to visit Xia Zhiyao with a large bag of medicines and supplements, although Xiao Jiu was very reluctant, he was still dragged to the milk tea shop by Beibei.

Xiao Jiu's face was still gloomy when he was cleaning, Bei Bei made him a cup of green tea and leaned over with a smile, "Hey, didn't we say that we want to create opportunities for those two people?" ”

At the mention of this Xiao Jiu's chest, which was about to explode, he took the green tea handed by Bei Bei and drank it up with a bang. Bei Bei threw the used milk tea cup into the trash, and naturally wiped the green tea droplets stained by Xiao Jiu's mouth with a paper towel.

Xiao Jiu didn't feel comfortable dodging back, and Bei Bei didn't mind and shrugged his shoulders. Xiao Jiu touched the corners of his mouth, "I hope Lu Nanteng is really as you said - a good home." ”

Babe's eyes flashed, and she turned around and walked behind the counter. "How can it be better than that bastard in Gu Mingcheng?"

Xia Zhiyao took cold medicine and fell asleep again, and when he woke up, Lu Nanteng happened to be ready for lunch. Although Xia Zhiyao didn't have much appetite, he was really sighed for Lu Nanteng's good cooking skills, and ate a bowl of rice very face-savingly. "Oh my God, I feel more and more like you're omnipotent."

Lu Nanteng laughed and showed a mouthful of white teeth, which made people feel like a spring breeze. "This service is exclusively created by Xia Zhiyao, which is unique."

Xia Zhiyao sneered. "Can I order food later?"

Lu Nanteng stretched out his arm and opened his palm in front of her eyes. Xia Zhiyao blinked, puzzled. Lu Nanteng smiled happily. "Please press your index finger for porridge, press your middle finger for stir-frying, press your ring finger for stewed soup, and shake hands for one-stop comprehensive service."

Xia Zhiyao sneered, holding his stomach and laughing. At the end, she looked at Lu Nanteng with a smile on her chin, "Nanteng, no matter who marries you in the future, you will definitely be very happy." ”

Lu Nanteng picked up the porcelain bowl and gave her a spoonful of cordyceps flower crucian carp soup. "I don't want anyone, I'm waiting for you. If you can't wait for a day, you can wait for a month, and if you can't wait for a month, you can wait for a year. Ten or eight years is a bit longer, but I can afford to wait. He smiled at her with his lips hooked, and told her in a mocking tone, "Well, in ten years you will be thirty-seven years old, and I will be forty years old." Forty-one flowers for men, you know the way, women can't do it, when the time comes, who will follow you so desperately except me? I'll put the ring on your finger so that you can't escape! ”

It's not that he hasn't heard sweet words, Xia Zhiyao hung his head and pinched the handle of the spoon to send the soup to his mouth little by little, and he couldn't help but burst into tears and fell into the bowl, causing a circle of shallow ripples. Lu Nanteng didn't expect her to cry, and when he saw her uncomfortable, he felt distressed, and pulled a tissue to wipe her tears. "If you don't like to hear it, I won't talk about it in the future, don't cry."

Xia Zhiyao's shoulders shrugged, she turned around and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and glared at Lu Nanteng with red eyes. "Can you please stop being so nice to me?"

"I can't." Lu Nanteng is very honest.

Xia Zhiyao sniffed his red nose, "I know that you are dead-eyed." She rolled her eyelids and picked up the spoon again. This soup is delicious. ”

"Then I'll make it for you to drink in the future."

“……”

“……”

"Hmm." She let out a low, inaudible "um". Lu Nanteng shook his head for a moment, thinking about it carefully, did she not reject him as stubbornly and firmly as before, did it represent him...... Got a love number plate?

As long as there is an opportunity, the wait is not so difficult.

"Mr. Gu, Miss Xia's medical records have been processed, and I can't find relevant news now."

Gu Mingcheng pressed his eyebrows, her wrist was injured six years ago, and he didn't even find out until today. Gu Mingcheng was a little annoyed, and felt that it was inappropriate, at that time, it was not difficult for the Xia family to deal with a medical record, but why did she want to cover up the fact that she was injured? "Keep checking and don't let go of any possible clues."

"Yes......" the other party hesitated slightly, "Mr. Gu ......"

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Gu Mingcheng bent his fingers on the table and clasped it lightly, after the other party said a word, his light knocking action suddenly stopped, his thin lips were tightly pursed into a line, his deep eyes swept through the storm in an instant, and the cold and bone-chilling aura exuded around him almost turned this huge office into an ice cellar.

Even through the earpiece, the other party clearly felt a strong sense of oppression, he wiped the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead, and called hesitantly: "Mr. Gu, are you okay?" ”

Gu Mingcheng's fists creaked, and the blood all over his body rushed to his head, and he almost bit off the roots of his teeth. "It's fine."

Hang up with a snap.

Gu Mingcheng slowly narrowed his eyes, a cold light flashed in his condensed pupils, he never dreamed that Xia Zhiyao would dare to lie to him like this. The anger surging in his chest almost burst him, Gu Mingcheng stood up and punched the wall fiercely, the numb and painful sensation rushed from the phalanges to every nerve under the skin, Gu Mingcheng closed his eyes, and his chest rose and fell violently.

Not long after Lu Nanteng was recalled for urgent official business, Xia Zhiyao turned on the TV boredly and hugged the little pig pillow to watch a variety show in the small sofa. Looking at her head sinking again, when she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly remembered that Lu Nanteng had warned her not to fall asleep in the living room carelessly before leaving, lest the cold worsen and turn into a fever, she shivered coldly and woke up from the chaos.

Almost at the same time, there was a knock on the door, Xia Zhiyao thought that it might be Lu Nanteng who was relieved and turned back halfway, got up and smiled and went to open the door: "Nanteng-" The remaining greetings were stuck in her throat, she blinked, and looked fixedly at the handsome and extraordinary man in black clothes and black pants in front of her.

Gu Mingcheng drove all the way to the fire, and the name "Lu Nanteng" undoubtedly added fuel to the fire for him who was furious at the moment. Xia Zhiyao was stared at by his dark pupils, and a cool breeze blew on his back. She smiled very unnaturally: "It's just that I have a minor illness, and I bother the general manager to run in person, Xie Lu Xie cares, then it won't be far away!" She smirked and said that she immediately took a step back and pushed the door to close, Gu Mingcheng quickly blocked the edge of the door, and with a slight push, she completely defeated her patient.

Walking into the room, Gu Mingcheng frowned and looked at the small and crowded living room, Xia Zhiyao looked at his tall back, his heart was beating wildly, his aura today was obviously different from usual, there was no trace of carelessness, and the four big words "full of fire" were clearly engraved on his expressionless face.

I don't know which unlucky one provoked him, Xia Zhiyao sighed secretly, he had to put himself in danger again! But she didn't expect that Gu Mingcheng's upset and depressed mood at the moment was so desperate to kill that it was because of her-

The moment Gu Mingcheng turned around without warning, Xia Zhiyao's body trembled slightly, and he subconsciously took two steps back. Gu Mingcheng approached step by step, and his icy aura seemed to be a messenger from hell. Xia Zhiyao's body in the illness was already weak, coupled with extreme mental tension, his legs almost couldn't stand steadily, and he retreated step by step with his forward pace, and when her back was against the back of the door, the heart hanging in her throat almost jumped out. Her tongue was knotted when she spoke. "What do you, you, want to do?"

Gu Mingcheng approached her and stared at her. "Where did my child go?"

Xia Zhiyao opened his mouth and stammered, stunned in place and almost forgot to breathe. As if he had entered a nightmare, if it wasn't a dream, how could Gu Mingcheng ask, "Where is the child?" "You...... Say what? ”

Gu Mingcheng gritted his teeth and asked her word by word very slowly. "My child...... What did you do to him? ”

It's not that I haven't thought about the day when a secret will no longer be a secret.

But the only thing she didn't expect was ...... Gu Mingcheng: He seems to be ...... Do you care about this child...... Maybe it's just her delusion......

The wood is already in the boat, how can there be a reason to regret it?

She pretended not to know, and even smiled lightly. "Mr. Gu, it's me who is sick and not you, where are the children?"

"If you have the guts to lie to me, you have to have the guts to suffer the consequences." Gu Mingcheng narrowed his eyes, suddenly raised his hand and pinched her chin, Xia Zhiyao gasped in pain, "You are mistaken, there is really no ...... Child. ”

"Do you think you can really hide it?" Gu Mingcheng sneered, "Do you think I can't find any clues?" ”

There was a tingling pain in his jaw, and Xia Zhiyao gradually became difficult to breathe under the increasingly tense atmosphere, hanging down at his side, lifting his hand to cover his chest, patting it up and down to smooth his breath. Gu Mingcheng found that her white face was flushed, and only then did he realize that she was most likely to cause asthma when she had a cold. He cursed, let go of his hand hatefully, and took the asthma spray as she instructed. After Xia Zhiyao's breathing gradually calmed down, Gu Mingcheng persevered in the topic.

"Xia Zhiyao, don't easily challenge my patience, if you are smart enough, you should know the Tao...... What is the right thing to do? ”

Xia Zhiyao didn't pay attention to his inquiring eyes, leaned on the sofa and tilted his head to the side, silent. She stroked her up-and-down chest and quickly propagated her brain, thinking about countermeasures.

Gu Mingcheng's patience was exhausted by her silence, and then he sat up from the sofa abruptly and looked down at her coldly. "This kid belongs to the Gu family."

The door was thrown shut with a bang, Xia Zhiyao's eardrums tingled, and he covered his lips and tilted his head to force back his tears. A thought quickly flashed in his head, and Xia Zhiyao immediately ran back to the bedroom and pulled out the mobile phone buried under the quilt.

"Yi Xu, help me ......"
